Porting from UIQ 2
The changes made to Symbian OS v9.1 and the UIQ 3.0 UI framework mean that there are some changes which must be made to any UIQ 2.1 application in order for it to compile and run on UIQ 3.0. These changes are explained using the application example "Fifteen".

Porting from other Symbian Platforms
How to port from Nokia Series 60 Platform 2 is presented using an application example, including architecture overview, porting approach and code samples.

Porting approach
The approach of the previous sections is fine when you have a clear split between engine functionality (which changes very little during the port) and UI functionality (which may well have to be rewritten considerably). But what do you do when you don't have a split like that?

How do you get to re-use all of the development, testing, and defect-fixing you have invested in the application if you have to rewrite all of it?

This section presents a very effective approach to porting, tackling the questions above and providing sensible solutions.

Porting from non-Symbian Platforms: Technical issues
Here are the technical issues associated with porting from another mobile platform such as Microsoft Pocket PC, Microsoft Smartphone or Palm OS, or from a technology available as a software library from another environment for example Windows or Linux.
